Loved the atmosphere and how big the place was. The balcony wrapped around the whole place and there was a place to dry your clothes outside. Full kitchen was great even if we didn't need to use it. Amazing restaurants nearby.

This is a very reasonably priced hotel. It's close to the military support base and our Sicilian friends so this was very convenient. The kitchen area was more than we expected although we didn’t cook the weekend we were there. We parked in the garage under the building for no extra charge.

Besides it being clean, breakfast is super yummy, staff are very friendly and location is perfect if youre in Sicily for a spot of shopping. 2 Malls close by, designer village 30 mins away and Catania a short drive away. Indoor parking so you dont need to worry about any break ins and mega safe residential area. Love it

The apartment itself was comfortable enough - we used it simply as a place to sleep and as base.

Very friendly staff and owner. The owner recommended a place for dinner and drove us there as well as picked us up. It was very convenient for my visit to the Naval base. Breakfast could have used some fresh fruit. The fresh pastries were excellent and filled with delicious marmalade or pistachio. I can recommend this without reservation and would go back again.

With small children this Residential hotel is ideal, as you have a small flat and they can play around and not confide in one room. This is most important when packing and unpacking luggage. :)

The hotel is in a central location because it was very close to Etnaland and Catania. It is very clean and tidy with the room having all facilities including a kitchenette, Wi-Fi, cable TV and a very spacious balcony with a view. The staff at the hotel including Mr. Motta are very kind and helpful. The taxi service provided by the hotel is great and at a very competitive price when compared to normal taxi services. I really recommend this hotel.

100% verified reviews

To keep the rating score and review content relevant for your upcoming trip, we archive reviews older than 24 months.

Only a customer who has booked through Booking.com and stayed at the property in question can write a review. This lets us know that our reviews come from real guests, like you. Who better to tell others about the free breakfast, friendly staff, or quiet room than someone who’s stayed at the property before?

We want you to share your story, both the good and the bad. All we ask is that you follow a few simple guidelines.

Reviews vision

We believe review contributions and property responses will highlight a wide range of opinion and experiences, which are critical in helping guests make well-informed decisions about where to stay.

Reviews principles

Contributions to Booking.com are a reflection of the dedication of our guests and properties, and are treated with the utmost respect.

Whether negative or positive, we'll post every comment in full, as quickly as possible, after being moderated to comply with Booking.com guidelines. We'll also provide transparency over the status of submitted content.

Once a review has been submitted, you can modify it by contacting Booking.com customer service.

We will use the same guidelines and standards for all user-generated content as well as the property replies to that content.

We will allow the contributions to speak for themselves, and we won’t be the judge of reality. Booking.com’s role is that of a distributor of feedback from both guest and property.

Guidelines and standards for Reviews

These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.

Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.

Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.

All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.

Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.

The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.

By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc...).

눉The room was booked for 5 people however when we got to the room we found that there were only 2 glasses, 2 knives and 3 forks and there was no dish cloth so we had to use a small bath towel instead. When we went down to ask for more glasses and cutlery the lady at the reception didn't seem to know where to get us glasses from or if she could even give us, but we just stood there until something was done about it and 5minutes later went back to our room with the missing supplies.
Breakfast was nothing special. Bread rolls and a few slices of ham and cheese, and croissants. On the first morning when we came down for breakfast we were offered tea or coffee as soon as we walked in, however on the second morning we had to get up to ask for one and wait a while for them in fact we thought they had forgotten and nearly got up to ask again.
Not all staff were friendly, the youngest receptionist with curly brown hair and glasses was extremely sweet and helpful and had a lovely smile on her face whenever we walked in or came to ask for some help - its a pity we never got her name. The other two that we met seemed rather sullen and barely even smiled.
A few of the lights throughout the apartment did not work, most frustrating one was the bathroom as there wasn't enough light to use the mirror.
I wouldn't say that it was an uncomfortable stay, but I don't think we will be going back.

눉Not much to criticize, maybe the kitchenette can be staffed a little bit more and the breakfast with more choice.
